M12S Warthog CST/Gameplay

Racing

• The M12S Warthog CST is ideal for many Cross Country or Dirt Racing events, especially short Cross Country Circuits and Scramble routes.
• Due to its low top speed of only 192 kilometers per hour (119 mph), the Warthog is not recommended for longer routes (e.g. Sprint, Trail), especially on any difficulty above Pro, as it will easily be overtaken by hypercars like the McLaren Senna and Lamborghini Centenario LP 770-4 and other Extreme Offroad vehicles like the Bowler EXR S.
  • It is obviously not recommended for use in drag races longer than a quarter mile (402 m) due to this.
• Tuning the vehicle is highly recommended to get the fastest lap times possible in Class A.
• Take advantage of the vehicle's strong launch to overtake opponents at the start.

Freeroam

• The M12S Warthog CST is ideal for traveling through rough terrain.
• Its high ride height allows it to traverse through shallow water more easily than most other vehicles.
• It is ideal for Wreckage skills, as it is more than heavy enough to destroy multiple objects at once without losing too much speed or even breaking a Skill Chain.
• Giving it the RWD Drivetrain swap may be beneficial for drifting, if properly tuned.

Forza Horizon 3

• The M12S Warthog CST is a "Rare" vehicle, meaning it cannot be bought from the Autoshow by normal means. It can only be obtained through the following:

• The highest class it can reach is S1 853.
  • This requires a total 272,750 CR, 269,050 CR of which will go to the fully upgraded engine with the Twin Turbo aspiration swap and 3,700 CR of which will go to the lightest rim style available.
  • It is not competitive in S1 Class Rivals events due to the great affluence of vehicles like the Jeep Trailcat, Hoonigan GYMKHANA 10 Ford Escort RS Cosworth Group A, and Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione Forza Edition.
